Bavarian Beef This classic German stew is made with lean trimmed beef stew meat and cabbage.
1-1/4 lb lean beef stew meat (trimmed of fat), cut in 1-inch pieces
1 Tbsp vegetable oil
1 large onion, thinly sliced
1-1/2 cups water
3/4 tsp caraway seeds
1/2 tsp salt
1/8 tsp black pepper
1 bay leaf
1/4 cup white vinegar
1 Tbsp sugar
1/2 small head red cabbage, cut into 4 wedges
1/4 cup crushed gingersnaps
1.. Brown meat in oil in a heavy skillet. Remove meat and sauté onion in remaining oil until golden. Return meat to skillet. Add water, caraway seeds, salt, pepper, and bay leaf. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat, cover and simmer 1-1/4 hours.
2.. Add vinegar and sugar; stir. Place cabbage on top of meat. Cover and simmer 45 minutes more.
3.. Arrange meat and cabbage on a platter and keep warm. Strain drippings and skim off fat. Add enough water to drippings to yield 1 cup of liquid. Return to skillet with gingersnap crumbs. Cook and stir until thickened and mixture boils. Serve with meat and vegetables. Yield: 5 servings
